A Faithful Friend

A Faithful Friend  Rick Ramirez Barba   April 2017 How can i thank A most faithful friend Whos by my side Has always been Who’s never judged Nor left my side Everyday together... But left at night This friend, whose name I never knew Who never spoke- This friend was true How can i thank This true great friend Whom my life has always followed From beginning - till the end.... My dear true friend Of whom i knew - so little Uncovering his past Was like an unsolvable riddle I’ve tried and tried With no avail Remember how we met.... When? and where? But then with time When life got slower A young man no more But Much wise....and older I knew that my true friend Who forever stood by me That when i died and went away My true friend..again...I’d never see My friend who never left my side You too--- have a friend like me Who goes away at night And only in the day you’ll  see How can i Thank you my true friend Who has no name and most don’t know That the friend I thank so much.. Is simply ...my shadow.....
